Pet Relief IAH Intl Arrivals?
I flew UA128 into IAH last week and couldn't find a pet relief area anywhere before the curbside (e.g. before Immigration). Anyone know of one? Seems like stepping of a long international flight with a pet that a potty area would be a priority. The IAH web site shows the closest one is in Terminal D (which would be after immigation, baggage claim, customs and security).
Thanks
Thanks

Does any airport in the world...on Int'l arrivals...have this "convenience" so a pet can potty prior to legally entering a country ?

Let's stay on topic :-)
I want the OP, or anyone in fact, advise about airport pet potty areas prior to entering a country, any country.
Would this pet potty area be prior to pet "check" areas, too ? Where the officials check the potty-less pets documentation for needed vaccines, etc ?
(smh)

If you're talking in general at an airport, several have it - such as C/D at IAD. Look for a Pet Relief sign, and there is a room with fake grass and a fire hydrant in it, on the main concourse.

Of course many airports have Pet Relief areas, as does IAH, but they are not in the area the OP feels necessary. ...just after getting off an International flight and prior to Immigration and Customs.

I don't track toilets in arrivals areas very closely. They definitely have people toilets in right next to the arrival gates at GIG (where I fly most), since it is a 10 minute walk to Immigration. I expect them to add a pet relief area soon as well since they just added one in departures - just a small low-walled enclosure next to the wall on the concourse.

We flew in today. No pet relief anywhere before immigration. So, after 14 hours without a pee she made a little puddle on the way to immigration. Not a big deal but it is silly not to have a pet relief area.
There is a people toilet, by the way, before immigration, in IAH (and many other airports).
